Intro to Somatics of Money Workshop
June 13, 2024 | 4-5:30pm PT/ 7-8:30pm ET
Justice Funders is proud to host an Intro to Somatics of Money workshop with Gerald Mitchell.
This offering is for all funders, investors, and resource mobilizers interested in reimagining and embodying a transformative relationship to money—one that is heart-centered, grounded in spirit, and allows us to collectively live in right relationship with ourselves, other beings, and the earth.
Together, through guided meditation, discussions, and somatic practices, we will explore our feelings, emotions, and definitions related to money. We will better understand where they originate for us individually and collectively, how they impact us personally and professionally, and begin to tap our imagination to see beyond restrictive notions and extractive cycles, so that we may center people and planet over money, and move towards a Just Transition.
